Final Fantasy XIV fans can now properly benchmark their PCs and check out some of what's coming to their game this summer.

The Xbox profanity filter is currently ruining the readability of the FFXIV chat on Xbox Series X/S due to censored words.
Lol, damn... At this point, they were better off keeping FF XIV away from Xbox. It has been nothing but obstacle, after obstacle.
What happens if you say things that used to get you banned on Twitter e.g. 'a man can't be a woman'?
I'm not convinced this is the profanity filter. It doesn't make sense to censor words like class, harvest and dance. It seems to be a bug.
Well, FF14 itself has some pretty awful chat censoring so Xbox being in the same boat isn't too farfetched
it censored the S T D in "harvest dance" and I bet the A S S in class. I know this because of Runescape
Yeah these new fangled filters are going a bit too far. I have a game that filters "wtf". It's a censor for a self-censoring phrase. But I think overall it's how it should be. If you don't want certain language being used in your game by your player base, then it's up to you to filter/ censor the language you don't want. I can respect that. What I can't respect is when you say things that are not really offensive then you get ostracized for it.
This is completely false, I tested this on my son's child account and mine, this is not Microsoft censoring they will censor swears but not the combination of letters I can prove this with a screenshot where I use all mentioned words in the article but do not know how to upload a picture.
You can all continue your bashing, I was wrong someone explained to me this is a new policy, that's why it only happens for me in this brand new release. I'll try latter on ps to confirm but their response seemed informed wich leaves me rather worried for future censorship on my xbox.
It's not xbox, go ahead start a chat with the youngest person on your friends list then say raid mass class sass said .... they do not censor any of these I even got away with R.Aids. sqaure on the other hand does.
Nice review, everything you stated was true. We've seen it all before, done it all before for this most part. Just waiting on my Wildstar beta code now. :)
One of worst reviews, totally disagree with it.
I've seen a lot of sites hype this mmo up like it's one of the best mmos out to date, when in reality, it really isn't. It's really mediocre at best, I'm glad to see you aren't apart of that media hype train. Nothing in the game even screams out greatness. The minor good ideas the game does have are burdened by a grindy, tedious leveling system.
FF14: ARR is mainly a copy and paste from mmos that have already been out on the market. This isn't to say it is a bad thing because the majority of mmos copy and paste from one another, but it's like SE just took everything from a handful of mmos and added them into the game without trying to make an improvements or distinct changes to give this game it's own feel. The combat and constant spamming of your slow sprinting reminds me of Aion. The fate system reminds me of GW2 and the story is lackluster and uninspiring compared to previous FF titles.
P2P games are supposed to resemble quality but everything I get from from this game I can get from a F2P game. In fact I am actually having a better experience playing Neverwinter and ironically that game has every cutscene voice acted and even comes with PVP!
